4th of July Dessert Ideas: Patriotic Desserts

4th of July - Red, White, and Blue Berry Trifle - Martha Stewart Recipes Ingredients 1 1/2 pounds raspberries (5 cups)3/4 cup confectioners' sugar1/4 cup fresh orange juice (from 1 large orange)10 ounces mascarpone cheese (1 1/3 cups)1 1/4 cups cold heavy cream1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extractFine salt20 to 24 ladyfingers (from a 7-ounce package), broken into 1-inch pieces3/4 pound blueberries (2 1/2 cups) Directions In a medium bowl, combine raspberries with 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar and orange juice. With the back of a fork, lightly mash berries to release their juices and let sit 10 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, stir together mascarpone and 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar until smooth. Whisk in cream, vanilla, and pinch of salt and whisk until soft peaks form, about 4 minutes.Cut one or two pieces parchment 1 inch taller than side of an 8-inch springform pan and line inside of pan. Place half the ladyfingers in pan and top with half the raspberry mixture. With a small offset or rubber spatula, spread half the whipped cream over berries. Tap pan gently on counter to remove air bubbles. Repeat with remaining ladyfingers, raspberry mixture, and whipped cream. Top with blueberries and refrigerate until whipped cream is stiff and cookies have softened, about3 hours (or, tightly covered with plastic, up to 3 days). To serve, unmold trifle and peel away parchment. Cook's Note We used cake sparklers on this trifle. They should only be used outdoors, according to package instructions; alternatively, look for sparkle candles, which will give you a similar look. Both are available from many online baking-supply stores.

So many yummy 4th of July cupcake ideas. I also love the American flag cake design using berries on this page...looks delicious! - OK, I know it is still six months to Memorial Day/eight months until the 4th, but you can never plan to early. These are some really cute decorating hints and ideas for cupcakes I hope you can use.
